[QUOTE="LittleDudesMom, post: 441411, member: 805"] Knowing the background story still allows me to feel [B][I]some[/I][/B] sorrow. Kanga didn't ask to have these issues and the fact that her siblings want to forget her existence is sad to me. It doesn't excuse what she has done or the impact that it has had on her sibs, but I also question erasing her because I venture to guess that her existence will rear it's head in those children's life as they grow older. Taking her pictures down is almost like sweeping the dirt under the rug - it's still there, you just don't have to face it until you move the carpet. In ten years, the kids may have to face reality again and if they have pretended it doesn't exist, it might be harder when it resurfaces. Just my random thoughts, no desire to make judgements about the decisions you make for your family. I admire and respect you as a mother. Sharon [/QUOTE]
